bonj said:They're dangerous, and arrogant. No mountain bikers like horses, becuase horses think they own the countryside, simply because they have largely had the run of it for years, but now they don't. They can't blame people for realising what shoots horses actually are and forming alternative hobbies. An example of why they are dangerous twats: The only safe place to be relative to a horse is away from it. In front of it - it can bite. Behind it - it can kick you. To death, if it so desires. At the side of it, it can buck its arse and knock you over, probably also to death. On it - and it can throw you off. They're temperamental, wild animals and to expect them to have road sense is to me ludicrous.

Therefore, the motorists are obeying the rules of the road.
To be honest, a Horserider, or Equestrian DOES own the road. Many Equestrians you see around DO own the countryside.
The missing entity in my priority list is "Her Majesty, the Queen".
